US Navy Aircraft and Helicopter Crash in South China Sea
Two US Navy aircraft and a helicopter crashed in separate incidents over the South China Sea, but all crew members were rescued safely.
According to AFP, the first accident occurred when an MH-60R Seahawk helicopter plunged into the sea shortly after taking off from the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz during a routine flight.
The US Pacific Fleet confirmed that all three personnel onboard were safely recovered by search and rescue teams.
Roughly 30 minutes later, an F/A-18F Super Hornet fighter jet, also operating from the USS Nimitz, went down during another routine operation.
The incidents have raised fresh concerns over operational safety.
